Attn 79-80 4WD owners: You can now have Bigger Brakes

79-80 Truck owners have been kind of getting the short end of the stick when trying to do the conversion with V-6 Calipers and FJ Vented Rotors. I found this info on Marlin:
paged 103 of this thread: http://board.marlincrawler.com/index...213#quickreply
for those 79 and 80 owners you don't need to swap to 81-85 hubs. just drill 4 holes.

79 pickup hub


LandCruiser rotor


Land cruiser rotor sitting on the 79 hub. notice the two small holes are lined up with two of the holes that the 79 rotor used to bolt to the 79 hub



then using a 5/16 drill bit line up the threaded holes and drill the new 4 holes in the rotor.



once they are drilled remove the rotor and use a 3/8 drill bit and open them up so the bolts slip through and then bolt it on with the original 6 bolts.
